The interior has been refreshed throughout with luxury vinyl flooring, fresh paint, updated doors, recessed lighting with dimmers, new switches and outlet covers, and numerous designer touches. The foyer welcomes you with custom wainscoting, while the living room features built-in bookcases, decorative wall detailing, a resurfaced fireplace with updated tile and mantel, and new flooring.

The remodeled kitchen showcases resurfaced countertops, painted cabinetry, tile backsplash, new sink, updated lighting, under-cabinet outlets, new hardware, and custom mudroom paneling.
